   App step 1 of 3 · Audio Output

   Check the sound

   Put on wired headphones, then tap Play 10 clicks. The bars light up with each click.

   Use wired headphones

   Bluetooth headphones are not suitable for practice because they add latency between your hit and the sound.

   App step 1 of 3 · Audio Output

   App step 3 of 3 · Calibration

   Calibrate your kit

   Tap Start Calibration, then hit any pad with one stick on each click (Tom 1 is recommended) until all bars turn green.

   Calibration measures your kit’s delay so your timing scores stay fair.

   Play with the sound

   Listen to the click and hit with it. Use one stick: hits with two sticks are less even, and the calibration may not pass.

   Calibrate again if you switch audio outputs

   Each audio output needs its own calibration.
